The project came after Environmental Protection Minister Idit Silman decided last week to classify the Nile crocodile as a “domesticated wild animal,” despite objections from professional officials in her ministry.

The office of far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir said Silman’s decision “paved the way for the project,” adding that the “pilot phase of the crocodile prison has officially begun” in one wing of Ketziot prison.

Ben-Gvir previously published videos from the special wing at Ketziot to show harsh detention conditions, including preventing detainees from leaving the wing, depriving them of blankets and food, and forcing them to sleep on iron sheets.

      Oh, no, I don’t reject to accuse Israel’s government of genocide. But why are you refusing to answer the question. Are the Germans, Chinese, and all the others also guilty by association?

          This is not the point here. Your sock puppet claims there is something guilt by association. Why are you refusing to answer the question.? Are the Germans, Chinese, and all the others also guilty by association?
